Thank you to the EU for yet more proof that the concept of "Democracy" is a lie. When the technocrats want to create the panopticon, they will do it, regardless of law or the cost to our souls. Our "leaders" represent nothing but theirs and their pay master's interests.
🇪🇺 The EU just passed Chat Control 1.0 in Brussels.
Platforms can now scan your private messages again, officially "voluntary," in practice blanket surveillance.
Here's the democratic scandal: 314 MEPs voted against it. Only 276 voted for it.
It passed anyway... because an absolute majority of all MEPs was required to reject it, not just a majority of those present.
More people voted no than yes. It still passed.
Pushed through on an urgent procedure just before summer recess, when absences are highest and attention is lowest.
This is how rights disappear folks. Not in one dramatic moment, but in procedural fine print, on a slow news day, while everyone's looking at Tehran.

@tedcruz@TuckerCarlson Bud, you work for the cretins in the Epstein files. You don't get to talk about who hates what. You're so full of misanthropic propaganda that you willfully accept a corrupted narrative of your religion just because it serves your greed.
Did you get a good price for your soul?
@UniquelyHusky@IRanMediaco Because America hasn't learned a thing from the decline of the European Empires, and thinks mercantilism is totally different this time around.
@SpotlightForYou@MintPressNews@K1rr1ly Both, and also Cuba's geopolitical position in the Caribbean, and it's capacity to be a imperial breadbasket like it was all the way up til the Revolution. Whether it was the Spanish, US, United Fruit, the Mob, they all wanted Cuba for a lot of reasons, none of them good.
@OperHealAmerica I think you meant to say, the Talmud says that Jesus was resurrected through Necromancy, and that he is in Hell boiling in a pit of excrement (Gittin 57a). Islam teaches that he is the right hand of Allah.
It's that simple.
Don't complicate it.
@DeborahDou11570@DoofyOfficial@MattWalshBlog Anyone who thinks that another country's interests should override what Americans want for their own govt. Zionists like Ben Shapiro (and congress hawks/AIPAC) advocate extreme pro-Israel policies that are not in the interest of most Americans, like war with Iran, the GWOT, etc.
@BRICSinfo Lolololol literally America is trying to end conflict, and the EU just sits there and goes "HOLY SHIT, BETTER GO TO DEFCON MORON". Europe used to produce proper diplomats and statesmen. I miss those days.
@FBIDirectorKash@AGPamBondi Awesome. Any news on Epstein/Diddy circles prosecutions? Cuz those organizing agencies are wayyyyy more traitorous. Just saying......
@uhtred_ragnason@IanCarrollShow@FringeViews Help me out here: your problem with him isn't that he's saying things that are untrue, or that he's lying to millions of people (which @IanCarrollShow has never done), but that he's..... on JRE?
Please tell us what Uhtred approved Podcasts or activist actions we should focus on
@AngelaBelcamino Also, if domestic intelligence agencies were sponsoring the Epstein/Diddy circles to acquire "kompromat", lock them up and throw away the key.
If foreign intelligence agencies were sponsoring the Epstein/Diddy circles to acquire "kompromat", lock them up and throw away the key.
Assange on USAID: ‘The received wisdom in advanced capitalist societies is that there still exists an organic ���civil society sector” in which institutions form autonomously and come together to manifest the interests and will of citizens. The fable has it that the boundaries of this sector are respected by actors from government and the “private sector,” leaving a safe space for NGOs and nonprofits to advocate for things like human rights, free speech, and accountable government.
This sounds like a great idea. But if it was ever true, it has not been for decades.
Since at least the 1970s, authentic actors like unions and churches have folded under a sustained assault by free-market statism, transforming "civil society" into a buyer's market for political factions and corporate interests looking to exert influence at arm's length. The last forty years have seen a huge proliferation of think tanks and political NGOs whose purpose, beneath all the verbiage, is to execute political agendas by proxy.
It is not just obvious neocon front groups like Foreign Policy Initiative. It also includes fatuous Western NGOs like Freedom House, where naïve but well-meaning career nonprofit workers are twisted in knots by political funding streams, denouncing non-Western human rights violations while keeping local abuses firmly in their blind spots.
The civil society conference circuit—which flies developing-world activists across the globe hundreds of times a year to bless the unholy union between "government and private stakeholders" at geopoliticized events like the "Stockholm Internet Forum"—simply could not exist if it were not blasted with millions of dollars in political funding annually…’

@FishxCD@DOGE@usedgov If you're more concerned with money going to an auto manufacturer than tax money going to fund useless forever wars and regime change operations, you're part of the problem.
The US is a domestic economy enslaved to its foreign policy ambitions. We need to change that first.
@elonmusk Don't play coy, this is how the Post WW2 Bretton Woods system worked. We wanted to dominate the world, and so we threw money around. If you want taxes to stay here, start breaking up agencies like the CIA, the NED, the "Radio Free" groups, and other creepy regime change groups.
@JulesMoffit@FoxNews No, it's because listening to a CEO of an insurance company talk about loving everyone is like listening to Diddy talk about how sexual blackmail is wrong.
Also, if you consider yourself a liberal, you shouldn't be listening to corporate big wigs on principle. So pick a lane.
@kinsellawarren I'm guessing that when you say "100% Irish descent", you mean you're descended from the Black & Tans, because in case you didn't know, your rampant racial imperialism is showing.
Calling Zionists part of the "Civilized World" is like calling the CIA "protectors of Democracy".
Milei has been proposing replacing the ministries he wants to ax with Facebook AI and Google AI. I have a feeling DOGE is going to follow a similar playbook and we will have Silicon Valley running the government even more under the guise of efficiency. No wonder Zuckerberg and Bezos are trying to rebrand as "libertarian" and right-leaning now.
